> ...non-profit tax status is widely abused in the US by professionals who make management a lifetime occupation.

In what way? Any sources?

A related example is Zuckeberg charity - they simply moved some of their wealth to a charity but retain full control on how it's spent, it's just tax free now. http://fortune.com/2015/12/02/zuckerberg-charity/
It's not a charity, his donations to it aren't tax deductible or tax free. If the business makes tax deductible donations those will pass back to him.
Maybe something like this?

Some people abuse the position (like management) they are in and get get paid way too much money for the position.
